Can someone tell me if i got sport brakes?

Hey guys, i'm about to order Hawk brake pads, but i don't know if my brakes are sport or non-sport, since the dealer here brings all the Infiniti with the best options available all the time, here's a picture for my calipers:





Are they sport or non-sport, a friend of mine told me that they are sport, but i need to confirm it and make sure before i go and order brake pads that doesn't fit.

no pic....


is your G sport package? do you have an S on the back of your trunk?

if so, you have sport package. another way to tell if you have sport package, along with brakes is, the side skirts and front bumper are different from non sport G's.

Measure the diameter of your front rotors.

12.6" = Non-Sport
13.0" = Sport

cant see it but lemme give you a hint, if your front calipers has 2 small semi circles cutouts(dual piston) towards the inside of the rotor then you have non-sport, else if you have one bigger semi circle(one piston) then you have sports. Hope this makes sense.

EDIT:
Here is the sports with one cutout, now if yours has two you have nonsports, hope this helps.

It's true that the calipers look different but the non-sport caliper is dual piston as well.
